to set the clock to 2:40. Cross the bridge and turn on the switch.

pattern for page 158.

Rush Limbaugh Understands audio:
--------------------------------
Use Windows Explorer and open the "channelwood" folder on the CD-ROM. Find
the "holoamth" file. Play it backwards with Quicktime, starting at the end.
You will now understand what the man is saying when he's talking in the
Channelwood language. The message is "Rush Limbaugh Understands".
Mosaic:
-------
If you have completed the game, you will have been to D'ni, the place that
you arrive in after you have used the green book in the library's fireplace.
You will also notice that the floor is a mosaic, forming a picture of a man's
face. That man is not Atrus, Sirrus, Achenar, or any other game character.
The face belongs to Chuck Carter, who created a lot of the graphics for the
game.
Easter Egg:
-----------
If you play the file x:\QTW\Channel\holoamth.mov you will see a clip of Achenar
muttering gibberish in Channelwood. If the movie is played backwards, Achenar
actually says something like "Rush Limbaugh understands."
Library Walls:
--------------
Access to the places of protection starts by examining everything on the
library walls.
The Map:
--------
Access to the places of protection starts by understanding the function of
the map in the library.
Access Keys:
------------
* Turn on the marker switches on Myst Island to activate locations on the map
in the library.
* Rotate the Tower to locations that turn the line red by clicking and holding
the flashing icon on the map.
* Go to the Tower to find the access keys.
Getting to the Mechanical Age:
------------------------------
To reach the Mechanical Age, go to the southern edge of Myst. There should be
a building in the water with a large clock on it and two wheels you can reach.
The two wheels represent the hands on the clock, the large one controls the
large hand and the small one controls the small hand. Click the small one twice
and the large one eight times so that the clock says 2:40. Gears will come up
from the water and allow you to access the building. Once inside, there will
be three levers and a machine that says 3,3,3. The lever on the left turns the
top two gears and the one on the right controls the bottom two gears.
Pull the levers until the machine says 2,2,1. If you pull the lever and nothing
happens, pull the one on the far right to reset the machine. Once it says 2,2,1,
the large gear on the northeastern part of the island should open up.
Look inside it to find a linking book that will teleport you to the Mechanical
Age.
